- Pakistan have lost seven of their last eight men’s ODI against India (W1), with their only win in this span coming in the final of ICC Champions Trophy 2017 by a margin of 180 runs; indeed, the Shaheens’ win percentage of 12.5% against the Men in Blue since the start of ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2015 is their lowest against any single opponent in this span.
- India have won each of their last six men’s ODIs in ICC events when batting second on the day; indeed, their last loss while chasing in such events came against New Zealand in the semi-finals of ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2019 by a margin of 18 runs.
- Pakistan have lost each of their last four men’s ODIs at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, including each of their only two games in the format here against India (both during the 2018 Asia Cup); the Shaheens, however, have not played a men’s ODI at the venue since March 2019.
- India are unbeaten in seven men’s ODIs at Dubai International Cricket Stadium (W6 T1), their joint-highest such tally at any venue without losing (also at Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore – P7 W7); the only team to play more men’s ODIs at a single venue without losing is New Zealand (P10 W10 at University Oval, Dunedin).
- India bowlers have taken at least one wicket in the opening powerplay (overs 1-10) in 18 of their 21 men’s ODIs in the last three ICC events (ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2019, ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 and ICC Champions Trophy 2025); indeed, the Men in Blue have a bowling strike rate of 32.3 and an economy of 3.8 during the powerplay across these three tournaments, both being the best of any team.
- Pakistan bowlers have a bowling economy rate of 8.9 during the slog overs (overs 41-50) in men’s ODIs since the start of 2024, the poorest such rate among full member nations in this span; the Shaheens have conceded at least 100 runs in each of the last three men’s ODIs in which they bowled the complete 10 slog overs.
- Salman Ali Agha (Pakistan) has scored 40+ runs in each of his last five men’s ODIs innings (42, 45, 134, 40, 48), as many as he had managed in his prior 20 innings in the format; Agha has averaged 61.8 at a strike rate of 110.4 during this current five-game streak.
- Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill (1,943) are 57 runs away from becoming the fourth opening pair to score 2,000 or more runs for India in men’s ODIs (Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly – 6,609 runs; Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan – 5,148 runs; Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag – 3,919 runs); Rohit and Gill’s partnership average of 71.96 is the highest of any opening pair in the format (min. 20 partnerships).
- Mohammed Rizwan (Pakistan) has taken 20 catches in men’s ODIs since the start of 2024, the most by any player in this span; Rizwan (99) is one catch or stumping away from becoming the ninth Pakistan fielder to reach 100 dismissals in men’s ODIs.
- Mohammed Shami (India) has a bowling strike rate of 14.4 in men’s ODIs since the start of ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023, the best such rate of any bowler in the format in that period (min. 20 overs bowled); Shami has taken four five-wicket hauls in that span, including one in the game against Bangladesh, twice as many as any other bowler during this span.
